    Well passed the sim test first try on 4 hours of sleep. So I'm pretty happy. I am now officially done with 'testing' at Prime.

    The test wasn't horrible. You have to maneuver through some trailers and parked trucks. Do a straight back, a half alley dock type thing and then a forward offset.

    My straight back was awkward as I came in at an odd angle, so had to pull forward and fix that. The offset wasn't too bad, I used 2 pull ups, no goals.

    The forward offset is part most people had problems with as you got to cut it real late.

    You also only get 10 minutes for the test, so gotta keep moving. I passed in 9 minutes, 27 seconds.

    All in all, happy day.
     
    ironpony and Fratsit Thank this.
